    Market had been rallying a bit early in the week on expected midterm results given the market tends to like dividend governments, but then the red wave never materialized so the gains reversed and sold off yesterday. That in combination with a CPI release today gave people few reasons to want to be long ahead of a key CPI release. CPI came in cooler than expectations, which suggests rates are at the levels they need to be to change the trajectory of inflation. This morning's lower than expected CPI print caused market expectations for the December rate hike to fall below 50bps last I checked this AM. Renewed talk of a soft landing as we've now got virtually all key categories except rent falling, and rent is a known laggard. This prompted a big decline in 2 year yields which naturally will benefit stocks. It's all connected and all impacting the market's expectations for asset prices going forward.
    Yes, dramatic...I know what dramatic looks like.

    And never in history are the moves this big on a daily basis, thanks for trying make it seem like just another day.

    Look Miteysquirrel, all one has to do is follow the data and it will show you the major market moves BEFORE they happen. It's easy. Of course, you do need a few utilitarian items to assist you: computers that run quant algorithms, HFT operations, hundreds of billions in liquid assets... you know the regular stuff that most of us everyday people keep in the pantry in the kitchen.

    The answers are in the data, dummy!!!

    Remember, happy days are indeed back!

    Now would you please chill with the hysterics about these regular day to day changes.
